So what now? After my realisation that the girls were talking about me, I run outside to the training grounds where I meet with Cato Green, son of Poseidon god of the seas, storms and horses. It was starting to rain and I could see Cato's short cut black hair not even starting to get wet. "So you learnt to control it?" I say loudly as the rain started to get heavier, his deep blue eyes glimmer with pride. "Yep!" He replies walking towards me. "Still not claimed?" "Nope" I reply "Well, let's get to training then" I'm drenched as we walk inside the facility. "So what should we start with?" Cato asks "Swordplay" I say almost immediately, "Okay, did you bring your necklace?" "No, but I'll just use a spare sword" I walk over to the sword rack whilst Cato puts his armour on and grips the metallic blue handle of his sword. I grab a plain golden practicing sword from the rack and equip some armour from the stand. "Ready?" "You know it" he draws the sword from his belt, the trident on the hilt glowing "Let's go" he runs full speed towards me. I walk backwards until only a couple steps away from the metal wall behind me, Cato is still running and when the tip of the sword is nearly to my stomach, I jump and complete a front flip over his head, Cato doesn't have time to stop and crashes into the metal wall. He sits up from where he was lying "Nicely played" he mumbles "I'm sorry what?" "You heard me" he grumbles "Yeah I did" I titter. "So what do you want to do now?" I ask "It's finally stopped raining, let's go kayaking! ... With Dan of course" he adds as an afterthought "Okay, sounds cool! I'll go get him, you set up the kayaks, don't sabotage them this time!.. I will get you back!" I run off to get Daniel Angel, son of Hades-god of the underworld and underground riches, and has a blessing of Apollo. Don't ask me either 'cause I have absolutely no idea how the son of the king of the underworld got a blessing from the god of archery, healing, music, light & logic. I get back to the double doors of the accommodation building of 'The Miscellaneous' or 'Demigod Military Training Camp' which is what Disciplina, Roman goddess of discipline would say. I push one of the heavy iron doors open, walk to the middle of the complex and walk straight ahead of me down the North corridor trying to find room 79. Which honestly isn't that hard considering I've been there probably close to 300 times, maybe more and because my room is 78, which is the other side of the corridor which I've been to way more than 300 times. After about a minute I find room 79. I knock on the simple white painted wooden door like every other door in the complex. "Yeah, Yeah just give me a moment, I'm coming" 2 minutes later Daniel opens the door. I look at my watch "That was 2 minutes and 17 seconds, a moment is approximately 1 minute and 30 seconds" I smile "Oh, shut up Mia" "Hello to you too, Dan" I jokingly reply "Would you like to come kayaking with Cato and I?" I ask politely "Well, I would be absolutely delighted" he mocks "Hey!" I say loudly, hitting the 15 year old lightly on the shoulder. "Yes Mia, of course I will. Come on, should we go? we both know Cato can get impatient quickly".
